Synopsis

Now in its third edition, this comprehensive but concise textbook covering all aspects of modern cancer treatment has firmly become established as a favorite with residents, medical students and other health care professionals. The text considers the whole breadth of cancer medicine, from epidemiology, aetiology, pathogenesis and presentation through to diagnosis, staging, management and prognosis for any given malignancy.
For the 3rd edition, new developments in cancer treatments and more comprehensive coverage of tumor biology, palliative care, ethics, quality of life and communication have been included. There are also two additional chapters- on trail methodology and clinical evidence, and on the role of clinical case histories as an aid to understanding.
